 Description of the problemI purchased a 2007 camry le in late april. From the day i took delivery, there appeared to be a problem with acceleration; there were dead spots. That led to long 3 to 5 seconds lag times before the car would respond when pressing down on the accelerator. Also, the transmission shifted into overdrive when a steady acceleration was all that was needed. I finally took it to the dealer today; i thought that i would allow a 'break-in' period to see if the problem resolved itself. The moment that i began to describe the problem, i was stopped and asked if it was a 2007 camry le. An affirmative response brought an answer that there is nothing that they can do; it had been reported to toyota. Apparently to deflect what must have looked like rising anger, i was told that the service manger's daughter has the same problem. A call to toyota of america brought a response that the vehicle is operating as it was designed (so, i guess it was designed to stall when making a right or left turn, changing lanes on the interstate, trying to go forward, etc). My anger is 1) that they sold me a defective car, 2) that they know it is a factory defect but choose not to fix the problem (i can't believe that they are still 'thinking' about a solution), and 3) that i wasn't notified of this rather major defect (and why is toyota allowed to continue to sell these cars without the caveat that there is a factory defect that has not been repaired and toyota has no plans to provide a repair)? I have looked at over a dozen web sights where members have complained, but i have not seen a mention of the reason for the problem or a solution of what to do. Someone is going to be killed by this erratic behavior. *jb
